Re: [JAWS-Users] Another ms word question.
Damien, Check which keyboard layout you are using. Press alt+shift keys to navigate between them, until you come to United Kingdom or irish. For the acute accents, you would use alt+ctrl+vowel. For the grave accents, which the broad irish vowels are, you would add shift to alt and control keys; thus alt+ctrl+shift+a for Á, as in lÁ. - Original Message - From: Damien O'Connor damienmocon...@eircom.net To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, March 06, 2012 8:18 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Another ms word question.
